Description
No. 11 Stanley Place is a town house dating from around 1780, now functioning as part of a language school with No. 9 Stanley Place. The building is constructed of Flemish bond brown brick and features a grey slate roof.
The exterior consists of three storeys plus a mansard attic. It has a painted stone plinth and two damaged stone steps leading to the entrance, which has a door made up of four fielded panels above two flush panels, topped with a plain replaced overlight in a replaced timber doorcase. The first and third storeys have two replaced four-pane recessed sash windows, while the second storey has two recessed twelve-pane sashes. The windows have painted stone sills and slightly recessed painted gauged-brick heads. The mansard roof includes two dormers with four-pane sashes, pilasters, and pediments. There are also two shared chimneys on the west side.
At the rear, the main block has an altered door with an overlight, a four-pane sash window on the second storey, and two on the third storey, along with two twelve-pane dormer sashes in the mansard. A long two-storey rear wing features a hip roof, with the lower storey altered, and has sash windows with six, twelve, and sixteen panes on the upper storey's west face.
Inside, the hall features a looped radial-bar fanlight above the stairwell, a simple radial-bar fanlight in the rear lobby, and four-panel doors leading to the rear rooms. The front room has a six-panel door, panelled embrasures, shutters, and a cornice with a patterned frieze. The dogleg stair to the second storey has been rebuilt to match the original style and provides access to No. 9 Stanley Place. The front room on the second storey has a door with five fielded panels, panelled embrasures, and a cornice with a fluted frieze, while the back room has a door with six fielded panels. The original open-string open-well stair leading to the third and attic storeys features shaped brackets, stick balusters, and diminishing newels that interrupt the swept handrail. The third storey and attic have four-panel doors.
